(a)before the first sentence, and by adding at the end the following: In general.— For any major Federal action on Indian lands of an Indian tribe requiring the preparation of a statement under subsection (a)(2)(C), the statement shall only be available for review and comment by the members of the Indian tribe and by any other individual residing within the affected area. The Chairman of the Council on Environmental Quality shall develop regulations to implement this section, including descriptions of affected areas for specific major Federal actions, in consultation with Indian tribes. In this subsection, each of the terms Indian land and Indian tribe has the meaning given that term in section 2601 of the Energy Policy Act of 1992 ( 25 U.S.C. 3501 ). Nothing in the Native American Energy Act, except section 25006 of that Act, shall give the Secretary any additional authority over energy projects on Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act lands. .
